Traitor by Hattie Jude

4.0

Traitor is the first introduction to the Loxley Prep series. In it, you will meet Abel, Ronan, Wells, Bishop and Lennon. Throughout the book, and series really, we get bits and pieces of what happened in their past and how it sort of shaped them into who they are in the present. They all have one thing in common: the shitty camp they all went to.

Now when you think of a camp, you think of a fun summer one where you get to make friends and memories to last a lifetime. Yeah, this camp was not that kind of camp one freaking bit. Luckily, they all had each other until they didn't.

Lots of betrayals, secrets and mysteries to solve. A lot of which didn't add up because we were missing some puzzle pieces. The overall unknown bugged the heck out of me because I just wanted to know what went down and why no one trusted one another. Of course, it came done to the usual suspects: assumptions and miscommunication.

This eventually gave this group so much conflict - whether it was good sexual tension or not. It also doesn't help that there's just something about Lennon that makes the guys question every little thing. She's the light to their darkness and they have no idea what she has gone through since she left their lives. With their little reunion, they don't know what to do about her either.

The romance was so freaking good. Unfortunately, it also gave me a huge headache and some anxiety. Again, it was the unknown messing with my mind because I just wanted this group to get back to being on the same page.

In the end, we have so many suspects to keep track of and lots of secrets to uncover.
